WARNING
Risk of injury or damage
• When the device is operated at the extremes of the environmental operating specications (i.e., maximum temperatures and humidity), and in a single fault condition,
which is a single component or performance malfunction, such as a blocked exhaust vent, blocked air intake, or an internal cooling fan failure, the temperature of the air
coming out of the exhaust vents, located on the bottom left and bottom right sides of the unit can reach temperatures capable of causing a burn injury (see stated
temperature and contact time values in the model specic tables below).
• Keep exposed body parts, such as hands and feet, a minimum of 46 inches (1.2 meters) away from the exhaust vents to avoid the risk of burns. Single fault conditions
may result in visual and audible alerts and alarms.
NOTE – Under normal and single fault conditions, the concentrator releases warm air out the bottom of the unit (exhaust vents) which may discolor temperature
sensitive ooring surfaces. The concentrator should not be used over ooring that is sensitive to heat staining. The Manufacturer is not responsible for ooring that
becomes discolored.
• Operate the unit in a cool, dry area with good ventilation, located on a hard surface, avoid thick rugs or carpeting. NEVER block the air intake or exhaust vents. Keep
the unit a minimum of 12 inches (30.5 cm) away from any wall, draperies, or any other objects that might prevent the proper ow of air in and out of your oxygen
concentrator. Proper air ow is needed to prevent overheating of the oxygen concentrator. DO NOT place the concentrator near any heat source such as hot air
registers or heaters. Overheating of the oxygen concentrator may lead to low oxygen output and a risk of burns .
• The oxygen concentrator should be located in a well-ventilated area. DO NOT operate the unit in a closed or conned space, such as a closet, bathroom, etc. Avoid
operating the device near smoke pollutants and fumes.
• Under extreme environmental conditions and a single fault condition occurs, the following device surface temperatures may exceed 106 °F (41 °C). See Table 1 below

CAUTION
• Federal (U.S.A.) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
• It is very important to follow your oxygen prescription. Do not increase or decrease the ow of oxygen – consult your physician.
• Use of harsh chemicals (including alcohol) is not recommended. If bactericidal cleaning is required, a non-alcohol based product should be used to avoid inadvertent
damage.
